Prelude

Grassy lands, covered with trees
Their kingdom lies in these roots
But once again, from beyond the seas
I have come for murders and loots

Burning lands, covered with flames
Last remains of forgotten wars
I'm the one I should blame
If all I bring in death are my scars

Why don't these lands cry for our sins?
Silent witnesses of our madness
One war ends, an other begins
In a circle of infinite sadness

Winter lands, covered with snow
My life flees through my wound
Alone, spied by an impatient crow
In his eyes I see my own doom

Darkened skies, covered by stars
Here I am at last, resting forever
I dreamt of power above all altars
When all I needed was a shelter

Why don't these lands cry for our sins?
Silent witnesses of our madness
One war ends, an other begins
In a circle of infinite sadness
